UNDER FIRE! FANS SLAM BLAKE
Viewers are less than impressed to see the return of Blake, the villain from Sophie Monk’s season, after he was convicted of assault in 2015. “He shouldn’t even be allowed on TV after what he did,” wrote one disgruntled viewer on Facebook. In April last year, Blake, 30, pleaded guilty to the attack that left victim Tristan Cooper “unconscious, paralysed and bleeding from the head”. Production have since defended their decision to cast Blake, claiming his police checks were completed and came back “all clear”.
